Comment(by gcc@…):

 I'm new to Mac Ports and may not be doing things "right" -- i was used to
 the Debian Package manager ages ago and i'm not sure how Mac Ports is
 supposed to work. After some initial success with the Porticus interface,
 grass failed to install with the error message the original poster gave.
 I started using Mac Ports in the past week, so i should have caught any
 dependency on Mesa in installing Grass. Mesa was not listed in the
 dependencies when i ran
 {{{
 % port deps grass
 Full Name: grass @6.4.0RC6
 Library Dependencies: fftw-3, freetype, gdal, geos, jpeg, libpng,
 openmotif, proj, tk, cairo, readline
 }}}
 Yesterday i installed all the dependencies from the command line, and
 today i have installed mesa.
 {{{
 % port installed mesa fftw-3 freetype gdal geos jpeg libpng openmotif proj
 tk cairo readline
 The following ports are currently installed:
   cairo @1.8.10_0+macosx (active)
   cairo @1.8.10_0+macosx+universal
   fftw-3 @3.2.2_0+i386 (active)
   freetype @2.3.12_0+macosx (active)
   freetype @2.3.12_0+macosx+universal
   gdal @1.6.2_3 (active)
   geos @3.2.2_0 (active)
   jpeg @8a_0 (active)
   jpeg @8a_0+universal
   libpng @1.2.43_0 (active)
   libpng @1.2.43_0+universal
   mesa @7.8.1_1+hw_render (active)
   openmotif @2.3.2_2 (active)
   openmotif @2.3.2_2+universal
   proj @4.7.0_0 (active)
   readline @6.1.000_1+darwin
   readline @6.1.000_1+darwin+universal (active)
   tk @8.5.8_0+darwin (active)
 }}}
 After  " sudo port clean grass"  the installation of grass via Porticus
 (/opt/local/bin/port install grass +sqlite3 +postgresql83 +ffmpeg
 +universal +mysql5) continues to fail.

 The more simple install from the command line succeeds:
 {{{
 % sudo port install grass
 --->  Computing dependencies for grass
 --->  Fetching grass
 --->  Verifying checksum(s) for grass
 --->  Extracting grass
 --->  Applying patches to grass
 --->  Configuring grass
 --->  Building grass
 --->  Staging grass into destroot
 --->  Installing grass @6.4.0RC6_0
 --->  Activating grass @6.4.0RC6_0
 --->  Cleaning grass
 }}}

 Go figure.  This doesn't seem "right" but i'm not sure if i should open
 this ticket.

 Checked Porticus Log and verified "port selfupdate" ran. No ports are
 outdated.
 MacPorts 1.8.2
 Xcode 3.2.2
 OS X 10.6.3

 FYI.
